I adapted the recipe just a bit by substituting pulverized oats for the all-purpose flour so these are gluten-free as well as dairy-free (they are made with coconut milk). You know I adore recipes that are delicious as well as nutritious, and these pancakes fit the bill.

This is the fourth recipe I’ve made from Phoebe and Cara’s cookbook, and I have loved them all. I am also loving the stories woven in with the recipes (they are so charming!)…I really cannot say enough good things about it.

4. Heat a cast-iron or other heavy skillet over medium heat. Brush lightly with the coconut oil (or cook the pancakes in butter). Phoebe and Cara recommend making a test pancake to see if the temperature of the skillet is correct. Clearly I should have followed their directions, as my pancakes got slightly burned from me overheating the pan. Make sure to lower the heat of the pan if the pancake(s) brown too quickly (on the other hand, if your pancake(s) don't flip easily, then your pan isn't hot enough).

5. Cook pancakes for 3-4 minutes on each side, until brown and cooked through. Top with butter, if you like, as well as sliced banana and maple syrup.

Wow, those look amazing. You take the most unbelievable photos! I can taste those yummy pancakes already. We are huge pancake fans (my kids are 2 and 4) and we’re always looking for creative new recipes. So, thank you!!! :)

Oh Winnie, this is SO fabulous! I have a small, skinny kitchen! I LOVE those girls over at BGSK! I follow them and you, of course, on FB!!! (BGSK & Healthy Green Kitchen)! And, if that’s not enough to make the winner, you know how I feel about the chickens.
Love you, Winnie…..with or without a giveaway!!! xoxo

I love how these look! I just want to run into my “small kitchen” and make them! I just followed you (BGSK) on Twitter. Also liked Healthy Green Kitchen & Small Kitchen on Facebook – all these follows under my melissalopata handle.

Looks like a great book! Happy to have a few new recipe blogs to read too.

I have a very small kitchen in a very small apartment – kind of a galley-style that opens onto the living room. Am on sabbatical this year, so went down to half-salary and had to move to be able to afford it. Haven’t regretted it for a minute! It’s a challenge to cook in a tiny kitchen, but I’m fortunate to have a full size refrigerator, stove, and a double sink.

Winnie, it was so nice meeting you at BlogHer Food – I have been an admirer of your blog. Love how you made this recipe gluten/dairy free. I have a good size kitchen for which I am thankful as I do a lot of cooking for a fairly large family. I would love to see this new cookbook and see how they cook in their kitchen as when we vacation, we often rent a place with a small kitchen so we can eat in less expensively and more healthily.

I’ve just discovered your blog and LOVE IT! I’ve been skimming through it for the past half hour and can see that I’ll be spending far too much time here from now on! I am always altering recipes in an attempt to make them healthier.

Our kitchen is probably small to average in size but because it is open to the family room, it appears a bit bigger than it is.

I never have a problem eating breakfast; I love breakfast foods and these pancakes look so delicious that I might have to make them this afternoon just because!

Where was this recipe three hours ago when I was attempting to convert a vitamin recipe into gluten and dairy free. Ah….I would love to win this cookbook and I have a relatively small kitchen. My biggest challenge is counter space with the vitaminer and exalebor deydrator on the counter I dont have much room

I love your blog! I came across it searching for gluten-free recipes. My husband and I recently decided to change our diet to include more fresh vegetables and greens, and less grains. We have a garden, chickens, backyard goats and ducks. This recipe looks great, and I’m sure the rest of the ones in the cookbook are as well. I have a small kitchen (we live in a 1960′s home), and I have “liked” the facebook pages. Looking forward to more good recipes!

I so seriously hope this is the pancake recipe that will solve my GF oancake problems! When I try to sub coconut milk in for regular milk in GF recipes, it turns out to be a gummy patty, EVERY TIME!! Going to try when my little one is not STARVING in the morning:)

just made these, added chia and cacao, nice and no sugar just a bit of rice malt, they are good thank you
